I was trying to figure out what I could use 8 lbs. of 1680 for since it is available now.

I am very new to this forum and still trying to work out a consistently useable load for both 30-30 and 30-06 using a 173 grain cast bullet I have a mold for, I have tried 2400, 748 and unique so far with gas checks and sized a thousandth or two over bore dia. I'm liking the groups OK but finding chambering difficulties after 6 to 8 rounds. not sure what's wrong. I'm coating with hitec coating. bore looks clean with the unique in my 30-06 but must be getting chamber buildup
